Verifying Family Member Eligibility for Benefits

To meet health plan contract obligations and to control health care costs, UC performs periodic reviews of family members’ eligibility for enrollment in UC benefits plans.

If UC finds that you have enrolled individuals who are not eligible for coverage, those individuals will be permanently de-enrolled and you and your eligible family members may lose coverage for up to 12 months.
